Children of Prisoners (COPE) conference – Cancelled!

It is with deep regret that due to the COVID-19 pandemic the decision has been taken to cancel this year’s COPE Conference and Annual Networking Meeting due to take place in Leiden, 12-14 June 2020. It is particularly saddening to have to do this as everyone was looking forward to celebrating COPE’s 20th anniversary.

Plans were well underway for the conference ‘Time to Act, How to Act’ where the voices and views of children with a parent in prison would have been centre-stage, as well as for the weekend events. It is however pleasing to announce that the events will just be put ‘on hold’ until 2021 when EXODUS will be delighted to host COPE for the 21st anniversary conference and Annual Networking Meeting. We look forward to seeing you then.
